North Sea

In 2023, DNO had diversified production across 12 fields in the North Sea of which 10 were in Norway and two in the UK. During 2023, the Norwegian Fenja field came onstream, contributing to a North Sea net production average of 14,203 boepd (13,314 boepd in 2022). Of the total, 13,926 boepd were attributable to Norway and 277 to the UK (13,035 boepd and 279 boepd, respectively, in 2022).

In 2023, Norwegian development projects Andvare (32 percent) and Berling (30 percent) received government approval. These projects are expected to come on stream in 2024 and 2028, respectively. The DNO-operated Trym field was readied for recommissioning in early 2024. In addition, DNO was working to mature previous discoveries such as Brasse (39 percent) for project sanction.

During 2023, DNO drilled six North Sea exploration wells resulting in four discoveries. In addition, successful appraisal drilling moved previous discoveries Bergknapp (30 percent) and Ofelia (10 percent) closer to development. The Ofelia appraisal operation also led to a new gas discovery in the overlying Kyrre formation.
